| AMERICAN TEEN
"High school can be Hell. Let’s face it, it
never mattered who you were or what clique you were in, those four
years could be the worst of your life. For years filmmakers have tried
to capture the essence of being in high school and no film has been as
successful as the documentary 'American Teen.'"
"Acclaimed documentary filmmaker Nanette Burstein chronicles a year in
the life of a handful of high school seniors in Indiana: an insecure
jock, a glamorous and popular student council president, an aspiring
filmmaker, and a girl-crazy gamer geek. Billed as a real-life Breakfast Club (which
it isn’t at all—no Judd Nelson character, or any bullies whatsoever,
are to be found), it is instead a sign of both the changing times and
the things that never change, as well as a refreshing antidote to the
overly beautified “teenagers” and excessively clean buildings that
populate Hollywood’s phony high school stories."

| These are the end times
Grade update!
Economics. I'm hoping for an A. 85 and higher is considered an one, although I have a chance to get above 90. He realizes how insanely hard the class is, unlike...
Botany. This is credited to be one of the hardest classes many seniors have ever taken - this is coming from those in it. I'm getting 40 extra credit points for some extra work I'm doing today and tomorrow. Also, my presentation kicked serious @ss so that will help me. An A is a unlikely possibility; ergo, this is where my attention is primarily located. Ravi Dani, my albatross and archenemy of this semester. he is undoubtedly is the worst instructor I will ever have (hopefully). Today - final day of class - he taught us chapters worth of completely new material. There is no review whatsoever. This was my conversation with him today... "What should we study?" "Well, um, everything" "Everything" is twenty-seven chapters; "ergo this is where my attention is primarily located." Statistics. Good standing so far. I can get a 73 on the final and still make a B. That's really all I know. For some reason I'm good at math again. English. Another good standing, but it all depends on the grader - and more specifically - the mood the grader is in when (s)he reads my assignments. If they are being forced to grade on a Friday night, I don't usually get a good grade. Still no actual grade on my water bottle essay, or the six assignments turned in after word. And my rank in the class? Although there is stiff competition...I'm still #1  . So that's it. Two probable A's, a B, and...whatever Botany gives me. Without a doubt, this is probably the hardest semester of classes I will ever take, outside of English. One thing irritates me; people bragging about high GPAs when they easily achieve them. For example... a. People with high GPAs only because they are in band. Sullivan confirmed it; band is almost half of their grades. If you are smart otherwise - like Patricia - that's a different story b. High GPA braggers who take easy classes at easy colleges c. The mix of both
I know I'm ranting. It's just one guy's opinion.
Anyway, bring on the Juggernaut.
